How are you doing?


 How have you been doing?  Are you doing alright?  Feeling alright?  It has been 10 days since I posted last and I can't actually say how I am doing.   I'm tired.  I'm tired of snow and rain and mud.  I'm tired of not sleeping well.  I'm tired of it being too dark outside in the morning when I wake up to run.  I'm tired of trying to advertise these books and feel like I'm getting nowhere.  I don't know how to do school visits.  I don't know how to sell my books.  I am feeling lost and tired.

BUT I managed to make this book for my darling husband who loves robots and thought I should do this ages ago.  I said "but would kids be into robots?" and he made a joke about "oh but Socks is a hot topic" or something like that.  And I get it.  I  just don't see a lot of robot books going out at the library, so I really was questioning it!  The Socks book has stinky socks which every kid loves, amiright?!     In any case, I finished Robots, my latest Bingo Book and hope it will be enjoyed by some kid somewhere in the world.  Who knows.

Eat What Bugs You

 

20 years in the making!  (ok, between 15-20) a rhyming romp through a pond inspired by a shirt my mom bought my daughter.   The bugs want to "bug what eats you" but the frogs... oh the frogs want to "eat what bugs you"!   Who do you think will be the winner in this battle?!   

Illustrated with purchased pics which I know isn't the best, but I did what I could.  I think the story is a winner though and this will be enjoyed by many for years to come!  That's my own personal review!  Check it out on Amazon and other fine booksellers!
